Slot toppers or wall light?

[deano]

would it be possible to install a clock into certain belly glasses
would only need to be batery operated dial type

[drcrippen324]

yeah theres loads of room in there

in fact i likes teh way your thinking or even one of the funkey glowing LCDs that are about

[slothappy144]

It would be fine if you did not want to have the belly glass in a light box. I think the motor for a clock would cast a big, ugly shadow. I have belly glass that has mirror like lettering and details that look good without the backlight.

[drcrippen324]

oyu would get away with a digital LCD the size of the display thoughas the display would cover any shadow

[Lddrizzt]

you could put a small LED clock in one of the lower corners, should do away with most of the shadow.
OR get a junk pachinko cell and....Pachinko Clock

I saw transparent LCD desk clocks before it is see through except for the numbers. depending on how bad it would be to mount it could look incredible.

You do very good work Slothappy.... great job.

I'm very jealous of his wood working skills, he is a true craftsman. The wall lights have a very factory fresh look

[slothappy144]

Metz and met and I showed him the 2 test lights I made, the Taco slot has an almost holographic background, it looks about 4-5" deep from the surface to the illusionary background, Weird because the light it really is only 2" deep. it is made of 2 plates not one, the cover plate has a grid that causes the 3d effect.
Thanks everyone for the nice comments! I hope you get to see one up close soon!

[slothappy144]
